A gleaming golden girdle added a note of colour to the mediaeval gown of white velvet worn by Miss Prudence Hardinge Fitzhardinge for her wedding last night to Mr. Bowen Bartlett Bryant, which took place at St. John's Church, Wahroonga.

Over the graceful folds of the gown fell an old veil of embroidered tulle, which has been in the possession of the bride's family for many years. Her bouquet of golden orchids and white gardenias completed the white and gold colour scheme, which was also worn by the two brides-maids, the Misses Jean Fitz- hardinge. sister of the bride, and Peggy Prell (Goulburn). Their caped frocks were of white brocade, embossed in gold, and they carried floral muffs in golden tones.

The bride is the younger daughter of Dr. and Mrs. H. C. Fitzhardinge, of Warrawee, and the bridegroom is the third son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Edward Bryant, of Sydney.
